This a small Ryokan which is very authentic Japanese style. No English spoken but this adds to the authenticity. We loved the natural accommodation which was exactly as shown on the website. Excellent meal provided in the evening and an enormous breakfast which we were not expecting so was a bonus. We lounged about in out Japanese clothes provided and Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this clean and peaceful retreat.

Yamagaso was a wonderful surprise after a very disappointing stay the week before at Arima Onsen. This property is beautiful and our room with a garden view was more pleasant than any any place that we’ve stayed around the world. The rooftop onsen is a very special experience to not miss. The breakfast and dinner was superb and each dish presented was a work of art. All that being said, what made this place really stand out was the service provided by Kimiko. Her attention to detail, explaining customs, preparing the room and serving meals made our experience very special

A lovely authentic Japanese experience. Very welcoming hosts. Food was plentiful and to a high standard just not to my Western palate. Very fish orientated. A menu would have been good to help identify some of the dishes. We loved getting dressed into our Yukatas. No Wi-Fi in the room but available in the lounge. Convenient for Hakone station.

We came to Japan to experience the culture. Hakone hotel Sensei was perfect. Beautiful room with private onsen. We also experienced the open air onsen. The dinner and breakfast was fantastic. My only complaint was too much food.

Loved my stay here! Everything was well organised, the semi-private onsen was always free when I wanted to go. The little ryokan was comfy and warm. Would recommend.

The stay at Yamagaso was a unique experience. I recommend doing the half board as the Kaseiki dinner and the breakfast were fantastic! We also love the private onsen and the convenient access to the other onsen at the hotel next door.

아주 전통적인 료칸입니다. 할머니의 따뜻한 배려와 미소가 오래도록 여운이 남았습니다.

Das Yamagaso war relativ teuer. Wir haben dann aber bemerkt, dass an diesem Wochenende der «Bunka no Hi» (japanischer Kulturtag) war und alle Welt unterwegs. Die Begrüssung und Einführung durch das Personal war sehr, sehr freundlich und persönlich. Wir erhielten Grüntee und Süssigkeiten, während uns die Yukata und Pyjamas bereitgelegt wurden. Wir genossen die Stille, welche nur durch das Rauschen des Flusses und das Geplätscher der Bächlein und des Brunnens unterbrochen wurde. Das Zimmer war sehr gross und der Schlaf auf dem Futon war geruhsam. Es hat einen grossen Indoor-Onsen beim Hotel drüben, sowie einen weiteren Outdoor-Onsen im vierten Stock dort. Der ist etwas schwieriger erreichbar, aber auch sehr schön. Das Hotel erreicht man zu Fuss in rund 15 Minuten vom Bahnhof Hakone-Yumoto aus. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen hier.

We had a fantastic stay at Yamagaso. We were able to drop our bags off at the main hotel so we could go sightseeing before check-in. Dinner was a delicious kaiseki meal served in our room. It was great having our own private bath in our villa with hot spring water. Our host Momo-san was sweet and very helpful. If we ever return to Hakone we would love to stay here again.

The ryoken is absolutely beautiful and the staff are wonderful. It's a picturesque place to stay and not too far from the station or restaurants/bars. It was an amazing experience to stay here!

A very unique experience in a fairly traditional ryokan-style lodging. Hot spring readily accessible. Peaceful, soothing, and healing stay.
